D44's were only used in 87-89 and the Crycho 8.25 was used from 91 and up. So unless someone swapped in another axle, you definatley have a D35 back there. You most likely have 3.55 gearing. If you have a full size spare and a factory aux trans cooler, you might have 3.73's since they came with some XJ's equipped with the tow package. If there's no tag, the only way to know for sure is to drop the diff cover and count the teeth._________________97 XJ Sport with a bunch of stuff
